Bias Tweet: GBP/SAR holding above its 90-day avg and near the upper 3-month range. BoE easing seen in 2026 while SAR stays pegged to USD. UK inflation easing supports GBP, but geopolitics/oil risks keep it in a range. Key drivers • Rate gap: BoE is expected to ease gradually in 2026 while SAR stays fixed to USD via the currency peg. • Macro factor: UK inflation is easing toward the BoE target, supporting rate-cut expectations and helping GBP. • Geopolitical risk/global trade: ongoing tensions and US trade dynamics weigh on global demand, shaping risk appetite and the direction of Sterling versus SAR. Range GBP/SAR is likely to drift within the 3-month range, with a gentle tilt toward the upper end, unless broader dollar strength or oil-market shifts push it further. What could change it • Upside risk: stronger-than-expected UK data or a faster shift in BoE policy expectations could lift GBP vs SAR. • Downside risk: disappointing UK data or a renewed risk-off mood could push GBP lower against SAR
